It is genuine
Hi Charlie and Dave
Yes the pistol grip is not genuine, it is one I made up until I can get the right one. I also had some doubts about the looks until I looked it up on the net and found a couple of versions with the slotted barrell cover holes. See attached. I was more used to seeing the models with the round holes.  Cheers Tony

Hi Tony
The one (or is it two?) in your second photo appears to be identical to what you have with the trunnion mounting forward of the receiver. A nice little conversation piece. David

That's it

You are correct. A mate has offered me the rear handles and I am in the process of converting it to gas firing. Cheers Tony

That is an aircraft mount, very much the same as the .50 aircraft mount.
A friend of mine has one the same as your photo and was found in Pottsdamn Germany in the late 70,s however couldent tell if it was the .303 version or .30.

Hi Jason
You can never be sure of these things but I don't remember ever seeing a .303 Browning with a fat, stubby barrel jacket like the thing Tony has. The standard .303 barrel jacket is quite slender with a distinctive flash cone at the muzzle. If you have a picture of a Lancaster the things are sticking out everywhere. If you've seen anything different I'd be curious to know. David
